Description: Large Pyrite Carved Moon, Crystal Pyrite Moon, Gemstone Moon, Crystal Decor Moon, Pyrite Crescent Moon Face, Home Office Decor Pyrite stone also known as the Fool’s Gold is the most prevalent Iron sulfide mineral. Pyrite stone has the well-known name “fool’s gold” because of its metallic shine and pale brass-yellow color, which superficially resembles gold. Additionally, due to the hue, Pyrite stone present in coal has acquired the nicknames brass, Brazzle, and Brazil. The word “pyrite” comes from the Greek (pyrites lithos), which means “stone or mineral which strikes fire”. Several forms of stone that would spark when hit against steel in the past were known by this term in the Roman Empire; Pliny the Elder described one of them as being brassy, very certainly referring to what we now identify as Pyrite stone. Pyrite stone has been discovered in the sclerites of scaly-foot gastropods, where it is typically found in association with other sulphides or oxides in quartz veins, sedimentary rock, and metamorphic rock, as well as in coal beds and as a substitute mineral in fossils. Pyrite, despite having the nickname “fool’s gold,” occasionally coexists with trace amounts of gold. The “invisible gold” is a significant fraction of the gold that is mixed with the pyrite.
